Short of wiping out your system and resizing your partition, You need to get
a program that will that for you. Something like partition magic by
symantec. You could also do it with Linux live CD, like Knoppix from
http://www.knoppix.org/
or SusE live, but if you do not have any experience, I would stay away.

Unfortunately, no version of Windows or DOS has ever had the ability to
change the partition structure of a drive without losing all the data on it.
To do so requires the use of a third-party program. Partition Magic is the
best-known such program, but there are shareware/freeware alternatives. One
such program is BootIt Next Generation. It's shareware, but comes with a
free 30-day trial, so you should be able to do what you want within that 30
days. I haven't used it myself (because I've never needed to use *any* such
program), but it comes highly recommended by several other MVPs here.
